I have two arms, but I also have two fore-arms
2+ (2x4) = 10 so I have 10 arms
10 is certainly an odd number of arms to have, but 10 is also an even number
The only number I know of that is both odd and even is infinity
So I must have an infinite number of arms....

Hahahah!!! smile So funny!

1)In right triangle $MNO$, $\tan{M}=\frac{5}{4}$, $OM=8$, and $\angle O = 90^\circ$. Find $MN$. Express your answer in simplest radical form.

2)Points $A$ and $B$ are selected on the graph of $y = -\frac{1}{2}x^2$ so that triangle $ABO$ is equilateral. Find the length of one side of triangle $ABO$.

Find sides d and e and angle F if triangle DEF if angle D equals 32 degrees, angle E equals 108 degrees, and side f equals 12.
Round the length of the sides to three significant digits and degree measures to the nearest tenth.
I already figure out that angle F is 40 degrees.
Please help. Thank you!
